I Lost You captures the moment grief becomes physical — when loss isn’t abstract anymore, but something you can feel tearing through your chest. The figure is bent inward, clutching an exposed heart that no longer feels protected, whole, or safe. This piece is about absence, vulnerability, and the brutal clarity that follows losing something you thought would always be there.
This artwork is created using traditional wood burning and pyrography, completed entirely by hand from start to finish. The artist redraws the composition freehand for every burn — never traced, never laser-cut, never mechanically transferred. Even when revisiting emotional themes, no two executions are ever identical. Variations in burn depth, line flow, and surface texture ensure each finished piece exists as a singular, physical original.
Burned into solid basswood using a handheld pyrography tool, this piece required over 25 hours of focused, uninterrupted labor. Select areas incorporate hand-applied coloration layered directly into the burned surface, permanently fused into the wood grain. The natural characteristics of the basswood actively shape the final outcome, influencing every line in ways that cannot be controlled or replicated. This is not a print, not a reproduction, and not digitally assisted — it is permanent wood burning art etched directly into the surface.
Offered in a 12” × 18” format with framing options available in Black, White, or Brown, I Lost You carries an intimate yet striking presence suited for studios, private collections, emotionally driven interiors, or gallery walls. It’s not meant to comfort — it’s meant to tell the truth.
